I have posted this on the location/destination spoilers but here for reference:

Broken Hill's daily newspaper the Barrier Daily Truth has about the day in Broken Hill:

http://www.bdtruth.com.au/index.php?stub&id=1271

"Quite a few locals were excited yesterday at the news that contestants and crew from the US TV reality show 'The Amazing Race' were in the city as part of their Australian leg of the show.

The production crew and 11 American couples arrived in the city on two Rex chartered planes yesterday morning from Sydney, and were picked up by several four-wheeldrives.

The show has couples race across the globe, doing crazy things at each destination. Rotary and St Johns Ambulance were at the old Junction Mine yesterday with the crew and contestants while they filmed a sequence for the show."

From the Orange County Register (Los Angeles area newspaper) :

The diligent folks over at Reality Fan Forum do a phenomenal job of tracking “The Amazing Race” while it is being filmed.

The group’s network of spies found the contestants from season 18 leaving LAX Saturday and arriving in Sydney Monday.

The usual vague descriptions of the teams this early in the Race were replaced by the names of all of the participants – because season 18 will be another “all-star” season.

The Watcher puts “all-star” in quotes, because most viewers would be hard-pressed to apply the adjective to most of the teams running. All of the teams come from the six seasons since the Race’s first All-Star outing. “Second chance” might be a better sub-label, or “Do you remember any of these people?”

None of the teams won their Race, and five of them come from season 14.

In case you want to avoid being spoiled before CBS announces the cast in a few weeks, I’ll put the identities of the Racers after the break:

According to RFF, these are the teams of season 18:

From season 12: Ronald & Christina (second place), Kynt & Vyxsin (fifth)

From season 14: Jamie & Cara (second), Margie & Luke (third), Kisha & Jen (fourth), Mel & Mike (sixth), Amanda & Kris (eighth)

From season 15: Flight Time & Big Easy (fourth), Zev & Justin (ninth)

From season 16: Jet & Cord (second)

From season 17: Gary & Mallory (sixth)

You know what's disturbing? Everyone is assuming that it's an All-Stars season (imo highly unlikely considering the placement of some of the teams).

[Leafsfan]

Any Chinese or Japanese media pick up the race? I cant seem to find anything.

At least the media finally gave our amazing detectives credit!

“We’re thrilled the audience watching us sprint around the globe each week will continue to witness the breathtaking landscapes that serve as our backdrops, only now in high definition. Whether we’re racing alongside the crystal-white peaks of the Arctic Circle, the neon-lined skyscrapers of Japan, or the color-drenched domes of the Russian Kremlin, fans will enjoy a heightened viewing experience as we bring the world to their couch every Sunday night,” said Executive Producer and co-Creator Bertram van Munster."

I dont think he can be trusted?

Remember he is the one who said no non-elimination legs on season 12 and there were a couple. Also they just visited the Arctic circle and Russia so doubt it.

That is just a description...not a real route!

Nat, 31, and Kat, 35, have impressed viewers with their unflappable natures. While some partners have been abusive toward their teammates -- Chad Waltrip and Nick DeCarlo, we're looking at you -- these two women have behaved admirably toward each other every step of the way.

"My daughters enjoyed watching them," Keoghan said. "They’re two very strong women, obviously very smart. To me, the best thing about 'The Amazing Race' has always been about being able to watch relationships that are strong, functional, and that actually are inspirational. "Of course, we’ve seen the other side of that. We’ve seen all kinds of relationships over the years that for some reason haven’t worked. When there’s a great connection, if you remember when the cowboys were on, or you think about the connection between Nat and Kat, when you see that kind of connection and how they operate under pressure, and we’re able to capture that with a camera and share that with an audience, I think that’s pretty cool."
After 17 seasons, Keoghan has developed an interesting theory about same-sex teams and why they tend to communicate better during the race. This season, viewers have noted on message boards and Twitter that the men have not treated the women in their lives well, especially Nick who berated his girlfriend, Vicki Casciola, mocked her, and eventually stopped helping her finish a challenge.

"It’s almost like a mid-football game mentality where some of the guys are playing a game of football with their guy friends and they forget that they’re actually out there with their girlfriends or wives or partners," he said. "They start yelling and screaming like they’re in the middle of a game. It’s always surprising to me.

"It always reminds me of the book 'Men are From Mars, Women From Venus' which outlines exactly the difference between men and women," he continued. "And I think male/female teams have more of a challenge on 'Race' than same-sex teams just because of that fact that when you’re communicating and trying to work together under pressure, men and women just are wired different. I'm into equal rights and everything, but at the end of the day, men and women are just different and the way that two men will talk to each other when they’re competing as opposed to, say, the way two women talk to each other, it’s so uniquely different."

You be the judge.
